That all changed this weekend when my wife and I left with a few hundred bucks of new leather. The service from the owners was FAN-TAS-TIC. We were eagerly shown new styles, fitted into some great gear and even had a bit tailoring and button moving on the leather we bought. It's great to see real service is alive and well at Stonehead.

Although this establishment is consistently praised in reviews as "dog friendly", my dog was…read moreattacked here by the owner's two dogs. They charged on sight. This was not a mutual dogfight or provoked in any way. We were supposed to be spending a couple of days hiking and enjoying our gorgeous cabin rental. Instead we made the mistake of stopping for dinner here and spending the night in the emergency vet an hour away. When we arrived, it was dead and Louie was the only pooch in the place. The people were friendly and no one made mention of other unleashed dogs being in the building, or that my dog being there might be a problem on that evening. We would have left immediately and taken our order to-go if we had know there would be the potential for problems. We had dinner, chatted a bit, and were getting ready to leave when two large dogs (Cane Corsos) came charging from a side door directly for my dog. The owner realized what had happened and was able to get his unleashed dogs under control. Apparently his teenage son had let them loose without thinking. Once separated, we realized there was a large open gash on my dog's shoulder and a smaller one on his leg. A helpful man at the bar, who I believe was a paramedic, wrapped my dog in bandages and suggested we hurry to the vet as soon as possible. With no emergency vet nearby, the owner did the right thing and took us to an emergency vet in Mokena. He covered the bill for sedation, stitches, meds, etc ... I do appreciate the way he handled the situation afterwards. He also expressed that he wouldn't be allowing the dogs around other dogs without a muzzle after this incident. However, I still believe people need to be aware of this before choosing to potentially put their pets in harm's way. I really don't believe the owner expected this to happen, but his dogs are not dog friendly and his kids make careless mistakes. If my dog had been smaller, he would be dead, not just injured. My dog is now in pain consistently. We cancelled the remainder of our vacation rental (without refund). We didn't even use it, other than a few hours (to sleep) when we finally made it back from the vet. We had several days booked and planned. I am also out my vacation days from work, which I am now spending caring for an injured dog at home. Not to mention time and money spent packing, preparing, driving, etc... All the work that goes into planning a trip. To top it off, I lost my favorite pair of sunglasses in the scuffle. They're not expensive but had sentimental value to me. They were left at the bar but disappeared by the time we returned. I feel so horrible for my dog and am worried that this will change his sweet demeanor towards other animals. He's never hurt another dog nor has he ever been attacked and this can cause long term trauma and behavior changes in animals. I know a lot of my friends hike and go out to dog friendly places in this area. Please steer clear of this place if you have your dog with you.

This guy did a poor job on a table arm rest. Instead of wrapping the outside with foam, as we…read morediscussed, he placed a small strip down the middle. Now there is a visible crease where the foam ends. I even rounded over the wood so there would be a smooth transition. I am hugely disappointed. I offered him to repair the work he had done. He said NO! "It's too much work ". I did not haggle when he gave me a price. The funny thing is...I have more work coming up. I guess he doesn't want it. Now I must spend at least twice as much to get it repaired. The extra labor comes from having to undo what he did.

Driving down highway 178 (Clark street) just beyond the down town business district of Utica Il on…read morethe east side of the street you will find an old western frontiersmen style of store called Mix's Trading Post. Upon waling in through the front door you will either be delighted or intimidated at the decor and style, but do no fret this place is awesome. From 1920's post cards ($1.00 collectors items) to moccasins to Motorcycle Jackets, this place has it all. I stopped in on this particular occasion to look for a new pair of biker boots, I have looked around and I was either unhappy with either the style or prices I found else where then I laid my eyes on some traditional style Milwaukee lace up boots (not those plastic buckle sort of things that look like roller blades) with a nice modern touch dual zippers on the side so you lace them the way you like tie a good knot and you never have to lace them again! Thankfully they take credit cards becasue I was not planning on making a purchase but at $105.00 who could pass this up. The owner is good old guy who checks up on you but does not follow you around and keeps good conversation short. If you are from the area and have not been here what are you waiting for? and if you are just passing buy stop on in and check them out there is something here for everyone.

In 15 years of coming to Starved Rock State Park and exploring the surrounding towns, I've only…read morestopped in twice, the first time in 2002 or so, and more recently just 2 days ago. The place hardly changed (except for a new biker bar annexed to it), and is a welcome sight whenever we visit town, with its familiar storefront and vintage Western style sign. It promises unique treasures inside, and it delivers! The eclectic mix of merchandise includes biker/Native American/fantasy themed tchotchkes. They also sell Minnetonka and Red Wing boots. I saw a whole wall of guns and bullets. My prize finds are vintage Starved Rock postcards and some new old stock glass seed bead bracelets. Prices are inexpensive to moderate. I hope they stay in business for many, many more years!

I went to this business to have my vintage leather boots resoled. I did not ask for anything else…read more 5 weeks later and after several check up calls my husband went to pick up my boots. When he got home with them I noticed that they were not my boots at all. The man had placed a black sole on tan boots and had dyed vintage boots without my permission. He ruined them. He had already been paid for this work. I went back down there and dropped them off to be fixed after the damage he had done since he had already been paid. That was the first week of December. Today is January 28th. I just got off the phone with the sole employee and owner. He literally said, "oh yeah... I forgot about those. I threw them in a pile with a bunch of purses". He also told me that it was my fault the boots were not done because I didnt call him to remind him. He claims my boots will be ready Monday but that was after I had to get very sassy with him. He was not kind or understanding about the fact the he RUINED my vintage boots. He told me my boots were NOT vintage and that they had a rubber sole. I told him I didn't need his opinion on my boots and that I just wanted him to either refund my money or give me my finished product. I do not see how this situation is going to be remedied and I am out $50 not to mention my ruined vintage boots and all of the time and gas money it has taken me to drive back and forth to try to get my product I already paid him for. PLEASE DO NOT FREQUENT THIS SHADY SHADY BUSINESS WHERE THEY BLAME THE CUSTOMER FOR THEIR MISTAKES!
